Biography

Whigfield is a Danish singer best known for the song "Saturday Night", a hugely popular single of summer 1994. Born Sannie Charlotte Carlson in Skælskør, Denmark on April 11, 1970, she spent several years in Africa as a child before returning to her native country. She rose to prominence when her single "Saturday Night" became the summer smash hit of 1994, thanks to extensive play in the clubs of the Mediterranean and the fact that it had a dance which many found easy to learn. She became the first ever non-UK artist to debut at No.
